So, if God puts up with it for the sake of some good He foresees for you, and if you are willing to suffer what God suffers, and to take what comes to you through Him, then whatever it is, it becomes divine in itself; shame becomes honor, bitterness becomes sweet, and gross darkness, clear light. Everything takes its savor from God and becomes divine; everything that happens betrays God when a man's mind works that way. Things have all this one taste; and therefore God is the same to this man alike in life's bitterest moments and sweetest pleasures.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/8402</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63629]]></link><description><![CDATA[The man of knowledge must be able not only to love his enemies but also to hate his friends.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/63629</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60175]]></link><description><![CDATA[God does not play dice with the universe; He plays an ineffable game of His own devising, which might be compared, from the perspective of the players, (ie everybody), to being involved in an obscure and complex version of poker in a pitch-dark room, with blank cards, for infinite stakes, with a Dealer who won't tell you the rules, and who smiles all the time.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/60175</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I am not sincere, even when I say I am not. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65328]]></link><description><![CDATA[I am not sincere, even when I say I am not.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/65328</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Oh, how you wrong our friendship, valiant youth. With friends there is not such a word as debt:  Where ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16866]]></link><description><![CDATA[Oh, how you wrong our friendship, valiant youth. With friends there is not such a word as debt:  Where amity is ty'd with band of truth,   All benefits are there in common set.]]></description><guid>http://maxioms.com/maxiom/16866</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Innocents  Though Christ a thousand times In Bethlehem be born, If he's not born in ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://maxioms.com/maxiom/6854]]></link><description><![CDATA[Feast of the Holy Innocents  Though Christ a thousand times In Bethlehem be born, If he's not born in thee Thy soul is still forlorn.
